Every time you hear Carol Of The Bells - pls, recall that the autor of this song was murdered by the Russian marauder in his own house because that "Russian liberator" desired the boots worn by the author's father. Nowadays "Russian liberators" also murder Ukrainians poets and composers at their own houses. Also for the boots.
I've never met a Ukrainian who wouldn't know that this carol is a Ukrainian song. I mean, this is "Щедрик", everyone knows it's "Щедрик". I remember being very excited when I heard it in "Home Alone" and was really surprised when found out that the rest of the world thinks of it as an American carol. Anyway, great video 👍! This music deserves to be admired 🤗
I didn't know this was Ukrainian until recently due to war reporting. How would I? How would anyone? That said, I wouldn't automatically assume it's American even though I only hear it sung in English. I don't believe "the rest of the world" does either. If I were to make any assumptions at all about carols, I would assume European given their long history. if I really cared about origins then I would look it up.
@@robby3467 I hadn't realised myself, As I was looking up one of the 2 memorable Home Alone songs, as itsvthat time of the year again🎅, & just happen to look up the comments on Carol of the Beĺls, The other song was "Somewhere in my Memory" Sounds like it is just as famous as "Aul Lang Syne"
Maybe the Americans did think of it as an American carol, I didn't living in Scandinavia... But anyway: most of the things the Americans think of as an "American thing" has its origin totally elsewhere :)
@@laredo7543 Probably brought in by Immigrants, Halloween & St Patrick's Day by the Irish, Are two I can think of & US supersized it 😊 Also I saw on the news that a Ukraine reporter had posted a clip of kids in a bunker singing "Carol of the Bells" to keep their spirits up & hopefully people will think of them this Christmas 🎅
after every video that talks about Ukraine, I feel strong pride and emotion. Ukraine is a strong country and I am grateful for the support that the whole world is giving us right now❤🔥❤🔥❤🔥
Missing piece: "The song is based on a traditional folk chant whose language was thought to have magical properties. The original traditional Ukrainian text used a device known as hemiola in the rhythm (alternating the accents within each measure from 3/4 to 6/8 and back again). The chant based on an ostinato four-note pattern within the range of a minor third is thought to be of prehistoric origins and was associated with the coming New Year which in Ukraine before the introduction of Christianity was originally celebrated in April." - Wikipedia
пам‘ятаю як розповідала це своїм однокласникам в США в далекому 2016 і вони дивилися на мене шоковано, бо вперше чули, що це справді українська щедрівка. Як круто, що тепер є відео, яке просто можна кидати друзям іноземцям
Pamjataju jak rozpowidala ce swoim odnoklasnykam w SŠA w dalekomu 2016 i wony dywylysia na mene šokowano, bo wperše čuly, ščo ce sprawdi ukrainśka ščedriwka. Jak kruto, ščo teper je wideo, jake prosto možna kydaty druziam inozemciam
I remember the first time I heard it long ago, when the girls from our law faculty came to our cathedra and sang live. It was so beautiful and mesmerizing that I felt I had to do a little research on it. That's when I found out that this song actually became known to the rest of the world as "Carrol of the Bells". But nothing compares to hearing it firsthand in the original language.
This is a great video full of important facts, especially today. Thank you !!! I sing in a choir and we've long had the Carol Of The Bells in our repertoire, and - of course - we knew the author is Leontovych, but it's only now that we discovered the true history and text of the composition. Please everyone - support Ukraine however you can. Thank you. Slava Ukraini! 💙💛
Thank you for this video. This song was my Mom's favorite above all others at Yuletide and learning that it is a beautiful gift from Ukrainian culture makes it so much more special. As our humble home is bedecked with lights and sentimental baubles, we are reminded of how fortunate we are.

What a moving video. I recently heard this song, sung by a Choir of Ukrainian "guests" in our market town in UK. I like the way this video tells of the Ukrainian recent history through the "Schedryk" Christmas song..
Interesting, I never heard of any Ukrainian who wouldn’t know it’s Shchedryk, Ukrainian song. Was singing it my whole life, since 7-8y.o., when I joined child chorus at my music school. But maybe times during Soviets were really different. Thank you for such important content! Please, create more, let’s spread more of unique and amazing facts about our culture to the world!❤
Thank you for this deep dive into the history of a beautiful song, giving it so much more meaning to me. This was very informative and educative indeed. Cheers from Denmark. 🔱💙💛 Slava Ukraini!
George Gershwin attended all 3 concerts at Carnegie Hall and from a Ukrainian lullaby came out the most famous jazz number Summer time. So basically two melodies came out of that concert The Carol of the Bells and Summer time.
Excellent excellent job relating the story of how the music was written and how the russians tryed to destroy Ukraine as they are trying now Slava Ukraina

As a choir member, I have sang "The carol of thr bells". Knowing its history, makes me love this Christmas song more.

Thanks you for true history of Ukraine. All work have to see this video about Ukrainian Carol of the bells
I've always loved this song because it feels ancient.
If the name Peter Wilhousky sounds familiar, it's because he composed one of the best-known arrangements of "The Battle Hymn of The Republic".
Julia Ward Howe
одразу згадалось Summertime відомий джазовий стандарт, в оснонві якого українська народна пісня "Ой ходить місяць"
В основі цього джазового стандарту лежить українська колискова "Ой, ходить сон коло вікон":
Ой, ходить сон коло вікон,
А дрімота коло плота...
Питається сон дрімоти:
Де ми будем ночувати?
Де хатонька біленькая,
Дитинонька маленькая -
Там ми будем ночувати
І дитину колихати.
Ой, на кота, на муркота,
На дитинку сон-дрімота...
Котик буде муркотати,
А дитина буде спати.
